    Actually, no, Tomestones is correct. Next time you log in, take a careful look and you'll see that's how they are spelled. This is because they are not grave markers at all: they are Allagan data records. Stones containing tomes. They are highly valued because Allagan stuff in general is highly valued, and these happen to be books detailing how the Allagans lived, thought, and taught.

    The current Tomestones that are in vogue are Tomestones recording selections of poetry (Poetics), laws and regulations (Law), and odd bits of info not covered under other Tomestone categories (Esoterics). Previous Tomestones no longer so highly valued included those recording philosophical musings (Philosophy), myths and legends (Mythology), and military matters (Soldiery).

    Personally I'm holding off on the Esoteric weapon for my blm main. I want to hear more about relics before I make that jump. I get along just fine now with my upgraded Law weapon and don't really want to waste the eso's to get a weapon I'll be replacing. I have too many other roles to gear and I think I prefer doing those first.

    I've been starting to horde them the last week or so until we hear more about the relic weapons that are supposedly coming with 3.1. I main WAR for most content but I enjoy PLD/DRG/SCH as well and have been debating on getting any of those weapons depending on what goes down in 3.1. Relic weapons could be a game changer though so gonna wait it out as well.

    Are you doing AlexS? If not spend them the way you like as all the rest are face roll content that could be done without any eso gears (include the coming new dungens and 24 raid in 3.1) until 3.2 (in 4+ months)

    Priority #1 for Esoterics is your main job (SMN in my case). As tempted as I was to get Deathbringer for DRK, my call ultimately went the Almandal's way as well as Caller's gear (even though I look like Pit from Kid Icarus). You can get away with Prototype Gordian gear for the other jobs at least until the Void Ark comes our way.

    If you're doing savage you should completely gear your main.

    If you're not doing savage, buy whatever you want, doesn't matter.

    relic will likely not come until 3.15 which is about 6 weeks after 3.1 release. plenty of time to grab an eso weapon in the meantime. also the new primal with 3.1 will likely drop i205 weapons which are a nice gap filler till the relic and weapon upgrade get added in 3.15 outside of savage a4s. and yes. weapon upgrade wont come till then not even trough hunts. its unlikely. and i think this may the reason they hold the relic back till 3.15 since relic will be i210 for sure otherwise it wouldnt be worth the horrendus grind+rng that itll likely be. prepare for atma 3.0 now with heavensward fates AND heavensward tt card dropchances
